Description
Steels remain the most widely used metallic materials. By examining the mechanical properties of steels in conjunction with microstructure
the first edition gave a clear description of the development and behaviour of these materials - the very foundation of their widespread
use. This new edition more explicitly links this theory with applications whilst retaining the style and purpose of the original. The
text is updated throughout and includes three new chapters on acicular ferrite; the control of microstructures during welding; and a
further chapter on the modelling of steel microstructure to achieve optimum performance. Extensive bibliographies are also included.
Steel metallurgists in both industry and academia will find this book invaluable.
Audience
Advanced undergraduate students and postgraduates in materials science, metallurgy, mechanical engineering. Metallurgists and engineers in the steel industry (producers and users).
